Eddy. You not the first to mention the intakes unevenly dividing fuel. Just out of curiosity, does the magna one have the same problem? It isn't a y design, so I'm guessing no.

I also feel that boring would make more power, but a few articles presented some interesting points. Cant remember and dont care enough to look.

I agree increasing compression adds power. But if you cut the head or block as the way to increase it and dont fix the timing like you said, yourn making matters worst. Its how many honda guys mod their rides just for the sake of modding without actually thinking about what does what. Like how an oversized throttle body creates a lean condition. You feel more power, but its not a good mod.

And lastly, yes the starion turbo swap is the easiest way to make power. I did it and its so much fun to drive. However, its unreliable. I didn't do my research, so I'm turns out almost everything for it is discontinued. I have everything from a spare afm to relays in the trunk as nothing new is available. I even had to use up my spare injectors as both already died. However, the carb was very reliable for 8 years, just outrageously slow.

I say best performance mod for a g54b is a swap to something better.
